Re: How can Christians assert Absolute Morality?
Most Christians don't know enough about their own religion to be making assertions...
Let me ask you though, which moral laws are you speaking of?
and how does not adhering to those laws in anyway make them any less unchanging or absolute?
I have some Biblical education, but that has nothing to do with my post. I am neither commenting on or asking particular questions about anything in the Bible.
Which part of my following argument do you disagree with?
Some Christians assert that there is a code of Absolute Morality, defined as unchanging rules of behavior regardless of circumstances.
Most Christians assert that because of the New Covenant, most of the moral laws laid out in the Old Testament are not longer applicable (at least for Christians)
Therefore, at minimum, the discarded moral law was not absolute and it becomes unclear what would be Absolute morality.
